I notice that jQTouch was out ( http://www.jqtouch.com/ )

I'm not all that familiar with iui but wanted to make sure the community was aware for any potential benefits ...

so, any thoughts on how to get this to work with views and CCK?... I am trying out the views bonus pack... I was able to get the text file to be created. but not the way I want ... and I cant figure out how to get this to render like a custom file. I am sure there is a really simple way to do this...

From what I understand with jqtouch it uses a single page. So in other words, I think you need to construct your entire drupal content into a single page. The only time I've played with jqtouch was when I was playing around with phonegap. My theory is......phonegap + jqtouch + webservices (json) and drupal = mobile applications.

not exactly... You can have URL's to new jqtouch pages. But I am wresting with this issue myself.
Using HTML5's Cache Manifest feature, it is possible to make jQTouch sites/apps run offline. Cached, so the transition from one slide to the next would be pretty seamless. But a single HTML5 file would be more organized.

ok, so I managed to get a drupal site working nicely with iwebkit and even managed to make it work with cache manifest to get an offline app, but jqtouch still looks and functions a lot nicer, so going back to getting the animations to work when you got more than one page, rather than one single page with everything in it, then IrishGringo is right, we need to use the cache manifest, and what do you know, jqtouch has an extension for offline apps which does exactly that http://www.jqtouch.com/preview/extensions/jqt.offline.js . So with a bit of clever theming, it should be possible to wrap drupal up with the required structure to conform with the way jqtouch works and don't forget to add your .manifest file with all the content you want caching.

will be trying this out myself at some point, so hopefully I'll came back to this page with some more info.

scubscribing. Very interested but I'm horrible with javascript and still a little fresh with html5. Would thoroughly enjoy a mini tutorial.

Just to give you a flavour of what I've been up to with html5 and iwebkit you can see my work in progress here http://m.pensionsworld.uat.lnukapps.co.uk/pw . Http login required which is; username: nikos , password: g9JmtKT755 . The desktop version of this site is here http://pensionsworld.uat.lnukapps.co.uk/pw with the same http login details. I've yet to find some time to see if I can achieve the same results with jqtouch but it's definetely on my radar, just need make the iwebkit version solid before converting it to jqtouch, then hopefully I'll have some time to document all of this.

I created a small sandbox to add the jQTouch library and download the library using drush.

Issue tags: +mobile

nice one e0ipso :-)

I changed that mobile site I mentioned in my comment above (pensionsworld) to use jquerymobile. thought I'd see what jquerymobile could do to my theme. only issue you have to deal with is the jquery versions, jquerymobile needs jquery 1.4.x, jquery_update module will only bump up to 1.3.x. i found it was a bit sluggish on a htc wildfire, but it was ok on the iphone and samsung galaxy. but jquerymobile is another one to keep an eye on.

There's now a module for jqTouch:
